Abstract
A methodology to include quantum corrections in 3D Monte Carlo simulations is presented, based on the Density Gradient formalism. Three flavours are introduced, with increasing degrees of self-consistency between the current, field and quantum correction and compared in terms of accuracy and impact on the current voltage characteristics.
